The bald man in the repair shop didn’t know what modifications he made to this Elysee. When Liu Zhiyuan pulled the ring, this broken car felt like it was being eaten by firecrackers. I’m afraid only we at that time could feel the push-back feeling of accelerating in a straight line on the national highway.
I grabbed the roof handle and glanced at it with an ugly expression.
The instrument pointer was fixed at 150 mph and had stopped moving. I knew that the current speed was probably more than 150 mph.
Dou Sprouts howled a few words at first, but after a few minutes his expression looked similar to mine.
The car accelerated in a straight line, leaving behind the two Santanas, and gradually slowed down as it approached the fork in the Orangutan Bay section.
After getting out of the car, the Elysee's tires smelled like burning. There were only a few corners, and even the bean sprouts vomited twice when they got out of the car.
"Over there, go quickly." Liu Zhiyuan urged.
There was a cargo truck parked not far ahead on the roadside. The truck was flashing, and the three of us were led there.
"You are finally here, Brother Zhiyuan, hurry up and get in the car." When they arrived, Gangzi opened the door directly.
The three of us got into the back row and it was very crowded. Gangzi nervously said that’s it, let’s leave Brother Liu.
Liu Zhiyuan nodded, looked at the three of us and said:
"We Shandong men are straightforward. I, Liu Zhiyuan, helped you today. If one day I encounter difficulties, I hope you can help me. I hope I can meet you again in the future. When you leave Yinchuan, I will help you."
I can’t help, so take care of yourself.”
Xiaoxuan and I squeezed into the back row, watching Liu Zhiyuan nodded and saying "take care" to each other.
Then Liu Zhiyuan got into the Elysee and drove forward. Within a few minutes, I watched two Santanas roaring along the national highway, chasing the Elysee.
Seeing that the car was gone, Gangzi turned around and said, "You don't have to worry about Brother Zhiyuan. We used to follow Uncle Baotian to earn a living. We've encountered this kind of situation not once or twice, so don't worry."
Then we got on the truck that was pulling feed and hit the road.
Gangzi is young, born in the 1980s, and has a scar on his forehead. He was probably in his twenties, with dark skin and a gold chain hanging around his neck. What impressed me deeply was the myna bird on Gangzi's car.
Yes, Gangzi has a pure black myna in the car. This myna is a little bigger than a palm. When he sees people in the car, he will say: "Congratulations on getting rich, congratulations on getting rich. Your mother can help me."
When Starling said dirty words, Gangzi said sheepishly: "My sister bought this bird for me. It has been with me for 5 years. It is a male. It has a name. It is called Brother Lin. If you call it, it will react. Don't believe it."
Try it."
Gangzi drilled a hole in the iron sheet of the car roof and hung an iron cage with wires. The bird flew up and down in the cage.
Dou Sprout thought it was interesting and called to the cage: "Brother Lin, Brother Lin."
"Grass."
"Fuck." Bago cursed twice in succession.
Dou Sprout laughed loudly and said that the bird was really a spirit.
Gangzi drove out of Yinchuan on National Highway 109, and then got on the Beijing-Tibet Expressway. The truck drove all the way south to where he wanted to take us.
Lanzhou.
When mentioning the place Lanzhou, did you immediately think of a word, "Lanzhou Ramen."
It's the kind of Lanzhou ramen made from a cow for ten years, and the cow is still jumping around.
From Yinchuan to Lanzhou, it is more than 400 kilometers.
The truck was not moving quickly. We arrived in Lanzhou at around eight o'clock in the evening. Gangzi was in a hurry to deliver feed to the breeding farm. He put us on the side of the road and stuck his head out and said: "Guys, the cows are out of food. The boss is urging us."
Hey, I have to unload the feed first. Behind you is the Zhangsutan Vegetable Market. After passing through the vegetable market is the snack street. You go to eat first. Leave me a phone number. I will help you arrange a place to stay when I come back after unloading the groceries.
.”
Look at Gangzi taking out a Samsung
Dou Yazai said that Brother Gang is very rich and uses such a good mobile phone.
"Hey, do you have any money? Brother Zhiyuan bought this for me the year before last. I've been using it for two years. Tell me the number."
"Leave me my number," I reported my phone number to Gangzi.
After Gangzi left, the three of us entered the Zhangsutan Market together.
There are many small buildings in Yinchuan and many high-rise buildings in Lanzhou. Zhangsutan Night Market was a must-have at the time. Even today, I can still think of the local night market all the time.
Heading into the market, in addition to Lanzhou aunts rushing to buy cheap food, there were also many groups of children pushing hoops and running. A banner was hung above the door of the night market, which read: "The Silk Road Welcomes
Guests, visit Lanzhou Night Market and Sutan."
The crowd was noisy, including those selling balloons, grain seeds, candied haws, vegetables, meat, children's toys, etc.
We walked through the night market through the crowd and arrived at the snack street behind the market. We randomly entered a shop and ordered three bowls of ramen, plus three sesame seed cakes.
This shop is very authentic. There are 13 different thicknesses of noodles posted on the wall alone: "Capillary, thin noodles, three thin, two thin, one thin, two pillars, leek leaves, thin wide, wide noodles, large wide,
Belt width, buckwheat ribs, four ribs.
Xiaoxuan and I wanted the ordinary Erxi, and the Bean Sprouts wanted the Maoxing, with some vinegar and chili oil. The Bean Sprouts ate two bowls of noodles and two sesame seed cakes in a row.
After finishing eating, Dou Sprout burped, patted his round belly and said, "I'm tired after eating. Let's find a place to sleep."
Xiaoxuan stirred the noodle soup and said, "Brother Gangzi hasn't come back yet from unloading the feed. Didn't he say he would help us arrange a place to live? Just wait."
I nodded and said, just wait for Gangzi's call. What to do with the ripped off customer who is an unfamiliar person to us when we first arrived here? Let him arrange it.
We have to wait a long time.
Gangzi came here at around eleven o'clock in the evening, and by that time many merchants in Zhangsutan Market had turned off their lights.
< br> "I'm sorry, everyone, I encountered something that delayed me. Get in the car quickly and I'll take you to your accommodation. Brother Zhiyuan has entrusted you to me. I have to settle you down."
Gangzi drove us to a hotel called "Sanyou Hotel", which was very close to the Gansu Museum. Gangzi was very familiar with the owner of the hotel, Fa Ge.
After going up to the second floor, Gangzi said: "It's getting late. I'm leaving first. My old friend is bald. You can live here with peace of mind. Jin Fenghuang can't find it here. I still have to stay here."
I’ll be staying in Lanzhou for a while. If you have any questions, please call me.”
"That's okay. Brother Gangzi, go and do your work." I said with a smile.
After hearing this, he nodded and went downstairs.
The owner of the Sanyou Hotel is Xu Youfa, who had been with Liu Zhiyuan for a short period of time before. After Uncle Baotian died, Liu Zhiyuan switched to yellow noodle business, Gangzi switched to trucking, and the bald sixth brother opened a repair shop. The gang gradually dispersed.
Xu Youfa is in his forties. His teeth are very yellow and his hair is very bald. He is not very tall. People around him call him bald. It is not polite to call someone bald. We call him Brother Fa.
He was very impressed after hearing this, because Chow Yun-fat's God of Gamblers was very popular at that time, and he became Fat Brother, so he naturally benefited from it.
He prepared single rooms for us. Xiaoxuan Douyazai and I shared a room. My room was near the stairs, and Xiaoxuan's room was in the middle of the corridor.
It was very late, and there was a shower in the room. I was very sleepy after running around for a few days, so I went to bed early to rest after taking a shower.
I was sleeping, maybe around two o'clock or three o'clock, when I suddenly smelled a pungent smell, which was very similar to the smell of burning leather. This smell came from outside the door. It was very smelly and very smelly.
choke.
Wearing long johns, I sat up from the bed and turned on the light.
I'm afraid of a fire. Maybe one of the rooms outside is on fire.
Put on your slippers.
I opened the door and looked out into the corridor.
